Evolution
Evolution was written by Nat Friedman and the Ximian team to be the Linux alternative
to Outlook. Although it is not a reverse-engineering effort, Evolution looks and behaves
as much like Outlook as possible. In one package, you have an integrated mail client, a
calendar, a to-do list, and an address book.
Setting up Evolution is very easy, with a wizard to walk you through the entire process. To
set up an email account, type in your name and email address to get things going (Figure
13.8). You can also identify a separate address for replies and an Organization that
appears in your outgoing mail header. The first account you set up is your default
account; you can set up a different account to be your default later.
